Mobility of the sensor networks proposed a new way to the efficient design of sensor networks and improvement of network system performance. Mobility results in a number of functional changes in the MAC protocol and routing protocol. Especially, the mobility of the nodes may occur the increase of the overhead of transmission or disconnection of the link. Therefore, the study of the energy efficient transmission is very important in mobile sensor networks. This paper proposed adaptive transmission mechanism on the distance-based power control. The proposed mechanism was analyzed better than conventional method in the average energy consumption and network life by simulation results.

Since sensor nodes have restriction of using resources in Zigbee network, number of study on improving efficiency is currently ongoing[1]. Clustering mechanism based on hierarchy structure provides a prevention of duplicated information and a facility of a network expansion[2]. however overheads can occurs when the cluster header is elected and the election of a incorrect cluster header causes to use resources inefficiently. In this paper, we propose that the cluster header election mechanism using distances between nodes and density of nodes in accordance with the operation of the central processing system in which the sync nodes are having information of location and energy with respect to general nodes based on hierachy clustering mechanism.

A paired many-to-many k-disjoint path cover (paired k-DPC) of a graph G is a set of k disjoint paths joining k distinct source-sink pairs in which each vertex of G is covered by a path. In this paper, we investigate disjoint path covers in recursive circulants G($cd^m$,d) with $d{\geq}3$ and tori, and show that provided the number of faulty elements (vertices and/or edges) is f or less, every nonbipartite recursive circulant and torus of degree $\delta$ has a paired k-DPC for any f and $k{\geq}1$ with $f+2k{\leq}{\delta}-1$.

무선 센서 네트워크(WSN)는 배터리 자원의 제약으로 인해 수명이 짧다는 문제와 많은 이웃 노드와 통신하는 노드의 에너지 소비가 증가하는 에너지 불균형 문제를 가지고 있다. 이를 해결하고자, 최근에는 태양 에너지 수집형 노드를 사용하여 에너지를 지속적으로 수집함으로써 배터리 자원 제약 문제를 해결하려는 연구들이 활발히 진행되고 있다. 기존의 배터리 기반의 WSN을 위하여 제안된 유명한 데이터 수집 기법인 CTP(Collection Tree Protocol)도 이와 같은 에너지 제약 및 에너지 사용 불균형 문제는 고려하지 않고 설계되었다. 따라서 정전 노드 발생 및 루프 발생과 같은 네트워크의 안정성이 심각하게 저하되는 문제를 내포하고 있었다. 이를 해결하고자, 본 논문에서는 태양 에너지 수집형 노드로 구성된 WSN을 위한 향상된 CTP 기법(Solar-CTP)을 제안한다. 제안된 Solar-CTP기법에서는 수집 에너지 및 사용 에너지양 예측을 통해 노드 동작 모드를 결정한다. 성능 검증을 통해 기존 CTP에 비해 Solar-CTP의 정전 노드의 수가 매우 적고, 싱크의 데이터 수집량이 많아진 것을 확인하였다.

There have been many studies on u-Healthcare system for human using sensor network systems. In this paper, we design and implement a healthcare system for pets called uPetCare(Ubiquitous Pet-Care System) that can manage the status of pet on the web. The main functions of this system are 1) gathering data using sensor network, 2) multi-hop communication in sensor network, 3) data compression and aggregation at sink node, 4) storing data in web server, 5) real-time data monitoring using AJAX, 6) activity recognition of pet.

In case of wireless sensor networks being applied to a target environment having continuous data transfer, high-speed data transmission and processing is necessary to meet increased bandwidth needs. This paper proposes a novel multipath routing algorithm to increase the bandwidth of continuous data stream for the wireless sensor network using dual channel routers. We evaluate performance of the proposed algorithm in the wireless sensor network using the dual channel touter based on ZigBee protocol. According to the experimental evaluation, the proposed algorithm showed outstanding performance enhancement with the bandwidth of 150kbps, which is about twice of existing single channel router.

상수관로의 노후화는 단수유발, 수압부족 및 수질악화, 싱크홀 발생 피해와 누수로 인한 경제적 손실 등을 초래한다. 최근 상수관로의 노후화에 의한 피해가 심각해짐에 따라, 환경부에서는 전국적으로 노후관로를 개량 및 교체하는 작업을 시행하고 있다. 다만, 모든 노후관로를 일시에 보수 및 교체하는 것은 불가능하므로, 사용 중인 관로의 노후도를 정량적으로 판단하여 개량우선순위를 결정해야한다. 현재 국내에서는 '상수도 기술진단' 매뉴얼에 따른 관망성능평가 결과를 이용하여 상수관로의 노후화 정도를 평가하고 있다. 이는 평가항목 별로 기준을 나누어 조건값과 가중치를 부여하고, 총 점수를 합산하여 해당 관로의 평가 점수에 따라 등급을 판정하게 되는 점수평가법이다. 본 연구에서는 기존의 점수평가법과의 비교를 통하여, ANN(Artificial Neural Network)-Clustering 기법이 상수관로의 노후도 평가를 위한 새로운 평가방법이 될 수 있음을 제시하였다. 본 연구는 강원도 Y지역의 상수관로를 대상으로 진행하였으며, 기존의 관망성능평가 항목을 이용하여 전체 관로를 세 가지 등급으로 분류하여 노후도를 평가하였다. 또한 ANN-Clustering방법의 적용 가능성을 판단하기 위하여 기존의 점수평가법 결과와 비교분석을 실시하였으며, 전체 대상관로의 노후도 정도를 직관적으로 파악할 수 있도록 계산된 노후도 등급을 관망도에 도시하였다. ANN-Clustering방법은 관로의 다양한 특성값을 손쉽게 변경하여 적용할 수 있으며, 기존의 점수평가법과 더불어 상수관로의 유지관리를 위한 보다 객관적이고 합리적인 관망성능평가법이 될 수 있을 것으로 기대한다.

Efficient Power consumption is important in sensor networks because charging of deployed sensor nodes is too difficult. So this paper focused on Modified-CBPER reduces energy consumption by reducing CBPER's data announcement ragne, and propose an algorithm to reduce power consumption by additional reduction of data announcement range. Proposed EM-CBPER(Enhanced Modified CBPER) somewhat increases power consumption of data request and data forwarding but it reduces total power consumption by reducing data announcement transmission of account for large quantity on total packet transmission.

In recent years, urban areas occurred several times a sinkhole. In Korea, this limestone area where the sink hole sink holes occur based on not much was seen as a very rare phenomenon. However, the occurrence of accidents in recent Subsidence and urban areas is occurring in the limestone sinkhole may yet see another one called artificial Subsidence phenomenon. Subsidence in urban areas can have various causes, such as depression groundwater level changes due to the influence of soil, underground, etc. underground utilities by anthropogenic actions. But a lot of research on natural sinkhole by geological experts continued steadily since the past Subsidence that occurred in recent years the city has become an urgent problem to formulate a countermeasure to be very concerned about the human and material damage. In this study, the city by analyzing existing research on the causes and countermeasures of Subsidence recently released look at the announced sinkhole, published statistics and cases of Subsidence data, and overseas corresponding practices in each relevant agencies and to suggest measures for local Subsidence.

In the present study, the effects of the heat spreader thickness and the heat sink size on the thermal performance of a cooling device for a concentrating photovoltaic (CPV) module were numerically investigated. Numerical simulation was conducted by using the simulation tool ICEPAK, commercial software based on the finite volume method. Numerical results were validated by comparing the existing experimental data. The thermal performance of a cooling device, which consisted of a heat spreader and a natural convective heat sink, was evaluated with varying the heat spreader thickness and the heat sink size. The geometric configuration of the natural convective heat sink, such as the fin height, the fin spacing, and the fin thickness, was optimized by using the existing correlation. The numerical results showed that the thermal performance of the cooling device increased as the heat spreader thickness or the heat sink size increased. Also, it was found that the spreading thermal resistance plays an important role in the thermal performance of the cooling device which has the localized heat source.
